Surgery can be performed even at the age of 80 for lumbar disc disease. 80 years old with lumbar disc disease is more commonly associated with lumbar disc herniation and secondary spinal stenosis. Surgery under anesthesia can be considered if strictly conservative treatment is ineffective. However, the prerequisites are that the patient is in a physical state to tolerate anesthesia, and that there are no serious heart or lung diseases, and that coagulation function, etc., is basically normal. The above-mentioned conditions determine whether surgery can be done. The age of 80 years is not a contraindication to surgery, and surgical treatment can be done as long as the general physical condition meets the criteria for surgery.
